chances in live they deserve.

The Concept ‘The Island’

Youngsters will be placed in a relatively

comfortable and family-alike environment,

where they will live, learn crafts, widen their

general knowledge, develop their social skills.

Applying special ways of mentoring in

combination with education, work, culture and

sport will build the fundaments of self-identity

and development of personality.

We strongly believe that at a further stage of

their development this will positively influence

their attitude towards the society and the law,

and allows them to get their fair part of

chances in live they deserve.

The ISLAND

PROJECT www.clipa.md

The concept and implementation of ‘The Island’

initiative started in the early 2009. In March

2009, 5 acres of land was bought located 70 km

to the North of the capital of Moldova.

During the next year we have been reviewing

and challenging the basic concept of ‘The

Island’. We have requested and received

approvals and support from various Ministries of

Moldova.

We are already working on individual cases of

orphans: teens and young adults, identifying the

best approach and proving support showing that

that besides all circumstances, we can change

the future of those youngsters!
